(Hopefully someone will get the “Salame!” reference…)

Hey everyone! My name is Tyler. I’m a 21 year-old male (almost 22) located in Bloomington, IN. I’m currently attending Indiana University and plan on graduating with a BS in Computer Science and a minor in Business by the end of the summer. I have been accepted into the MS of Information Systems program at the Kelley School of Business here and will be starting that this upcoming fall.

As you may have already guess, I’m really big into computers and technology in general. I love building computers, managing systems/networks, and tinkering with gadgets. I’m a fairly avid video gamer, though lately all I play is League of Legends (username is hans030390 if you want to add me!). I’m also very big into music and audio gear. I played piano for 9 years, guitar for 3, and love to sing. I was in the top choir at my high school, but decided not to pursue anything further with choir after that. I’m big into headphones and home/car audio systems. I suppose you could call me an audiophile!

I also have a rather strange personality and sense of humor (won’t delve into details here). I don’t take myself to seriously and consider myself very laid back. I’m very interested in astronomy, philosophy (Eastern, mostly), and even politics! Despite all the above, I’m not some basement-dwelling nerd that lacks all social skills. I can be a bit quiet and reserved around most strangers, but I quickly warm up to people and generally don’t have issues in any social situations. I am not extremely outgoing, though.

That said, I’ve never found myself to be particularly great with women. I’ve been in plenty of serious, long-term relationships over the years, but I don’t seem to have the edge that some other guys do. I am fairly confident in my personality, my looks, etc., but I do think my slightly introverted nature works against me in a lot of cases. That, and I’m not the type of guy that’s interested in “hooking up” with girls. I prefer serious relationships with people I can strongly bond with. That can be a bit harder, especially in my environment.

Either way, I’ve been doing a lot of research on pheromones and figured I’d try them! I forget how I stumbled on this site, but I was glad when I did! The idea of experimenting with them honestly sounds like fun to me, given my curious, scientific nature.

I’ve been looking into getting something like Instant Shine, Instant Honesty, or [Instant Openness](https://a314.com/product/instant-openness/). Actually, I was interested in a combination of some or all of those, as they sound like something that might work well with me. I already have a cologne I like, and the fact that they can apparently go along with cologne interests me. Since I am not quite as outgoing as I could be and not the best at opening myself up to others or being obvious about my intentions/feelings towards someone (fear of awkwardness or rejection, I suppose), I feel like these pheromones might help me out. They might provide that slight extra edge that I’m looking for, though I understand they are no miracle cure! I still make an effort everyday myself and am always trying to improve on that!

Anyway, it’s nice to meet all of you, and I’m excited to try out some pheromones! Let’s hope it does not quite drain my wallet like my interest in headphones does, haha. I’m off to class now. 🙂

Hello and welcome to the forum.

College is a great place for testing these products - just remember though that they are not like the Axe commercials but I am sure you have a good grip on that.

It looks like you are planning on a good spread of products and seem to understand what they do.

I would mention one other product to think about: IG. It gives you a cool calm smooth kinda vibe. Which may go along well with your personality. The IG would serve as your base product and then you would add one or more of the other three as you think they might fit in.

The IO and IShine especially will be helpful with those intitial conversation type meetings, and the IH as you got to know someone better. IH is in fact one of my favorites. The IO and IH combination is actually pretty good too but I tend to prefer the IH myself as I have no problem starting conversations with people and all the chatter the IO creates can drive me crazy sometimes. But if that is your weak point then IO is what you want.

Let us know what you think.

hello and welcome!

I think the [pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/shop/) you were considering are a great start. Boss does a good job above describing them.

Starting with the socials is a great way to start, and learn how to see the changes.

Best of luck!

Ah, nice! Last I checked, IG was not available for sale (unless I’m crazy). I’m glad to see it back up again. That one also sounded interesting to me.

Not sure if it’s appropriate to ask this here and not in a separate post, but if I already have a cologne I like and want to use, how can I use that in combination with the mentioned products? The descriptions say you can use them with cologne but do not specify how. Do they go under the cologne? Over? Do they need to go on a different part of your body? Etc.

All the products I listed above - IG, IH, and IO all come in a light neroli scent that can be easily covered by just about an cologne.

You should apply the pheromones first then apply the cologne, preferably in a different place.

Easy enough. Generally I use one spray of cologne per wrist and press my wrists against the side of my neck. Sometimes I spray some on my chest as well, as it’s not a particularly overpowering cologne. Given that, what other locations would work well for pheromones? If it makes a difference, I am often wearing a t-shirt and hoodie. The hoodie only really comes off when it’s warm outside (I get cold easily).

To get a bit more in depth, with IS, IH, IO, and IG, what sort of mixes seem to work well for people (or a single product by itself)? Where on the body might each product be applied in a mix, and how many sprays for each? I know there is no one-size-fits-all way to go about this, but I’m just looking for a good starting position, if you will.

I’m still unsure if I should pick IG over IS for my first purchase, but I do plan on picking up the to-go IH and IO along with it.

Welcome to pherotalk Hans!

From your introduction I can say that you already have a lot going for you and this is just to add to and make even more progress.

I hope that we will see you around even after you received your products to keep us updated on what’s been going on with you.
